NEW YORK. Oct. 1S.-R. O. Dun &. Co.'n
Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will
say:
unfavorable signs are rare in tho week s
business. Mild weather Is the one Influence
to be charged with retarding relnll mer
chandise distribution, yet there Is general
conlldence that any sales thus postponed
will be made un later. The same Intlilenro
Is Invaluable In facilitating the handling
of cropB, erecting buildings ami other cm
door work.
Bank exchnnces for the week at New
York nre 33 ner cent laruer than last year
and 8.1 per cent above 1899, whlln lit other
leading cities the gains wero 16.3 and 9.1
per cent, respectively.
Strength without Inflation still summar
izes the Iron nnd steel situation. De-iiilto
two months of Interruption by the strike,
evidence accumulates that the vear will
surpass all records In the production of
finished material mid consequently In con
sumption of ore and pig Iron. Heavy orders
urc recorded for rails, with a tree move
ment of structural material, while wire nnd
wire nulls go abroad In large iiuautlll i.
Pig Iron Is hardening under tho vlcorom
demand, forge and southern foundry secur
ing deiiniin advances and besscmcr in
Pittsburg Is llrm at J16.
Tinpintes nre a most rcEtored to nnrmnl
prices. Since domestic mills have resumed
nnd Imports ceased, the Loudon nvirk' t
has declined sharply. Copper rose In the
face of reports that a lnrue reduction in
list prices was contemplated by lending
producers to reduce stocks.
Footwear factor es st have many weeks
of full employment cm heavyweight goods
for winter. Supplementary orders for
seasonable lines still arrive from eastern
Jobbers. Prices are not quotnbly higher,
tnough the rnmd r so of leather anil hid s
has taken so much of the protlt that shoo I
must soon deterorlate in quality If better
quotations are not forthcoming. Leather
lias begun to exhibit symptoms of specula
tion, dui Diiying oy tne leaning manufac
turers for Immediate consumption reaches
a largo total.
Cottons move freely, with prleeB well sus
talned for nil lines nnd definite advances
ill blenched goods. Woolen iroods ore more
quiet, yet shipments of over 6,000,000 pounds
of wool wtokly from Boston indicates no
decrease in activity nt tnc mills.
Fluctuations In cereals were rmall. Corn
receded a little further, Influenced un
favorably by the Inslgnlflcnut shipments
from Atlnntlc. ports, only 601,555 bushels for
tho week, compared with 2,779,800 last year
nnd 4.764,297 In 1S99.
Wheat lost a llttln of the erirU' trnin.
although declining prices a year ago makes
iue uiuercnco smnuer man it lias been at
any timo this crop year. Foreign buying
of flour Is still unsatisfactory, but the
outgo of wheat Is still heavy, for tho
week United States exports, flour Included,
amounting tt 4,391,053 bushels, compnroi
with 3,646,761 last yenr and 4,255,766 two
years ago. Western receipts of 6.K3.6M
bushels, against 7,426.651 last week and
7,126,419 a year ngo, Indicate that the new
crop Is being mnrketed less freelv, growers
holding back In expectation of better prices,
despite tho estimate of the foreign nu
thorltles that the world's yield will exceed
2,700,000,000 bushels nnd on unofficial pre
dictions of a domestic crop ot more than
760.00u.ai0 bushels.
Failures for the week numbered 229 in the
United States, against 209 last year, nnd
thirty-one In Canada, against twenty-six
last year.

llRAIJSTnEET'S nKVIF.W OF TRADE
Western Railroads In Market for Cars
C'erenls Grow Firmer.
NEW YORK, Oct. 18.-Bradstreet's to
morrow will suv:
Iron nnd coal consumption continue equal
to nnd In some cases In excess of produc
tion. Features this week have been the
sale by merchant furnnces in the Pittsburg
district of 75.1100 tons of Bessemer pig iron
to leading Interests at from S15.25 to 115.50
per ton at Valley furnaces, steel bluets
havp continued scarce and nre practically
unobtainable for prompt delivery, hotih
J27 and S2S per ton Is offered, against tho
new quotation of J26 for distant delivery.
Pig Iron stocks In tho central west nre
said to not exceed one week's supply.
Orders for fully 1,000,000 tons of rails for
next year's delivery have been booked, al
though the principal consuming Interest
has not yet apportioned Its business, which
Is expected to exceed 165,000 tons. Plates,
bars nnd sheets and structural material nre
all active, but iron bars are reported
easier. Tlnplato mills are catching up
with their orders and a cut is reported in
the prlco of wire nails.
Railroads are in the market for cars nnd
ono western tlrm has bought 2,000 this
week. Export business in Iron and steel Is
not promising.
Cooler weather and fear of frosts,
coupled with good reports from tho print
cloth Industry, hnve stimulated raw cot
ton, and this In turn Is reflected In higher
quotations for nearly ull leading bleached
cottons. Woolen goods nre rather quiet ns
regards new demand, but the mills are busy
on heavyweights nnd when these nre out of
the way a large volume of orders for spring
weights guarantees continued activity.
Wool Is steady nnd llrm, with a large con
sumption progressing.
Tho eerenl markets wero rather apathetic
early this week. Reduced speculative Inter
est and liquidation, cnuscd by larger te
celpts at the northwest, weakened prices
early. Decreases in these receipts nnd
smaller Argentine shipments nnd poorer
crop reports, brought a rather llrmer feel
ing Inter, from which the early loss was
regained and a slight advanco registered
on the week. All advices agree that tho
world's wheat supply will be larger than a
year ago, the Increases being hero nnd in
Canada and tho decreases in Europe, but
ngaliiMt this Is to bo cited the fact that the
rye, corn and oats yields, not to mention
other foodstuffs, are smnller this year than
for some years past.
Whent, Including flour, exports for the
week aggregate 5.03'i.073 bushels, ns iignlnst
4..19.S9S las week unci 3,796,463 In this week
Inst year. Wheat exports July 1 to dote,
fourteen weeks, uggregatc 95,104,251 bushels,
as ngalnst 61,251,891 last senson. Corn ox
ports aggregate 640,033 bushels, as against
678,216 last week and 2.SS6.P93 Inst year. July
1 to dato corn exports nre 14,945,113 bushels,
ngalnst 48,SS3,926 last senson.
Eastern shoe shipments are 24 per cent
larger for tho week and 13 per cent higher
for the season than they were n yenr ngo.

NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS.
Attention of Sessions Is Centered on
Northern Pacific.
NEW YORK, Oct. 18.-Attcntlon was
wholly centered on the Northern PaciPc
question today and the more the operators
In stocks studied tho problem tho more
they did not understand It. Thn continued
ncttvlty of Northern Pacific preferred. In
strong contrast to Its stagnant condition
yesterday and tho corner In tho common
stock, wns tho topic of Interest. Tho con
clusion seemed unavoidable thnt actual
steps wero being taken In the Northern
Pnclllc settlement.
Another rnther far-fetched explanation
was that the new Burlington rnllwnv In
corporated Wednesday would exchange Its,
buiuk ior mo bonus wnirn were issued
Jointly by Northern Pnclllc and Great
Northern In exchnnge for the Burlington
stock purchase. This would bo In effect to
cancel the whole Burlington Issue and thus
remove tho causo of tho conflict for con
trol of the Northern Pacific, but this wo-.fld
not explain the ubsenco of a single sharo
of Northern Puelflo common In the deal
ings. The tirond intimations from sources
usually accredited to Morgan influences of
the undoubted right of tho Northern Pa
clflc company to retire Northern Pacific
preferred caused an uneasy feeling that the
wholo dispute was In dancer of lir.-nlrlnr.

J ho source of the selling of Northern
'acillc preferred continued to bo shrouded
n mystery and tho fact thnt iiurrim.1,1
brokers wero concerned In tho selling udded
iu uie cuiuuKion ot sentiment. As it is be
lieved the Morgan-Hill claim to nbsoluto
control rests entirely on their holding a
majority of the common stock, with n pro
posed retirement ot the preferred, It was
ingeniously suggestcid that their holdings
of the preferred might bo coming upon tho

advancing price of tho preferred, which

CATTLE Tho receipts of cattle todny
wero Just about normal for this time of
the week. There were n few cholco
bunches In the yards, but as n general
thing tho quality of both tho natives and
the westerns was nothing extra. Packers,
howwver, and also feeder buyers, took hold
In good shape and as a result the market
was active and stronger all unund on
anything at all desirable.
Good to choice beef steers wero In active
demand this morning nnd strong prices
wero pnld.tV string of thirty-two head of
steers wclYhlng 1,392 pounds sold nt JS.20,
which was considered a very satisfactory
price. The market Is now fully ns high
as it wns nt the close of lust week or ot
any time this season. Common cattle this
morning did not meet with very ready
sale, as packers all scorned to be anxious
for the better, grades and neglected com
mon corn cuttle for the western rangers.
There was not much change noticeable,
though, In the prices paid.
The cow mnrket was nctive nnd granger
today. Packers nil bought freely irnd any
thing desirable sold 5 10c higher than tho
same kind brought yesterday. Prices nro
not now more than a dime below those in
force at the close of Inst week.
Bulls, calves nnd slags may bo quoted
fully steady today where tho quality was
nt all satisfactory.
Stockers and feeders of desirable quality
were at a premium and n good many
bunchcti sold considerably higher than tho
snmo kind did yesterday. Prlcea nre now
Just about back where they wero at the
close of last week, the dcclluo of tho
first two days of this week having been
regained. Common cattlo also sold uteniv
to strong today, ns comimrnd with vat--
day.
Desirable grades of western beef steers
wero In good request today at steady to
strong prices, but the common kinds were
more or less neglected nnd hard to dispose
of at satisfactory prices, Stockers could
a so safely be quoted strong to a dime
higher whore the qui llty was good, and
ine same was true of Iholco heavy feeders.

SHEEP There were not enough shreo on
the market today to make a test of prices.
All that was offered were a few odds and
ends carried over from yesterdny, which
sold at fully steady prices. A car of com
mon lambs nrrlvcd. nnd they alio sold at
wnni looKcu 10 oe iuuy sieauy lirii-n-.
Judging from the way pnekers acted thoy 1
were anxious for good stuff, nnd nnythlrg k
desirable would probahly have brought ai f
much as It did yesterday. As noted y vs- i
terd:;y, prlcer arc now 15tf25o higher than
they were at the close of last week, both 'in
fat Bheup and lambs, and nlso on feeders
